Question

In Dow’s process, the starting raw material is (A) phenol (B) chlorobenzene (C) aniline (D) diazobenzene

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In Dow’s process, firstly sodium phenoxide is obtained by the reaction of chlorobenzene with NaOH at 573 - 623 K and 200 atm, which on acid hydrolysis forms phenol. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/chemistry/11733e1a0f36e8c2ed5ed12303c00c5c-.png" />
